The theme of the competition was “Still Life or Macro,” with each entrant submitting three digital images.

The competition was judged by Seamus Costelloe FIPF of Kilkenny Photographic Society. Seamus was “really impressed by the standard of imagery” and provided excellent constructive feedback on all the images entered, which was greatly appreciated by the members. Many thanks Seamus for your time and advice.
